crystal



Coming to my parlor take a seat if you dare.
Let me enter your life with no remorse or despair.
 make you feel like a new person you see
I can give you raw energy,  energy you need.
The power I can give you the way I can make you feel.
You'll do just about anything to get me beg, borrow or steal
The amping tweaking speeding high that I give.
 You'll feel like you need me everyday for you to live.
It doesn't take much at first to get you going.
Just one small line to get the blood flowing.
Now you can do what was said that can't be done.
The work of 10 men and then some isn't this fun.
Eat me drink me smoke me if you want to be sane.
But if you really want to feel my powers you must shoot me in your veins.
Now I got you hooked my powers you cannot defeat.
Chemically depended on they say that's why you can't sleep.
But who are they to say do you really care?
Just snort another line if you dare.
But now I got you hooked you better not run out.
Because if you do you will crash for days without a doubt.
So get your rear and hear my friend better find me now.
before you go insane you better find me some how.
Your fuse is real short you're like a time bomb ready to ignite.
I really don't care what's going to happen to your family tonight.
Anything they say won't be right in your mind.
Because I'm not there you'll scream and yell and you won't be kind.
 Your head will start spinning won't be able to stay awake.
As your eyes grow heavy your mind gets cloudy and your hands start to shake.
There's only one thing on your mind and that's where my going to get my next line.
There are very few people who can escape my immortal touch.
These very few people just don't use me as much.
I'm called different names that you see crystal meth crank smack ice or speed.
I will change your life what you see. I will make you some chasing afternoon.
Needing hurting the line cheating it all comes with the addiction my friend.
Shout out so called friends depending on me as you near the end.
Zoning out everyday. Shadow people are here to stay.
Free your mind and free your soul or paranoia will take it     s toll.
Not eating or caring are some of the things I will give to you.
I can make you fly high or I can make you lazy too.
I can change your personality for the worst.
Your friends and family will tire from your outburst.
I will turn you into a lowlife flunky.
Shooting, banging, injecting into your veins now you're a true junkie.
The brain is fried the well has run dry.
 Frustrated and confused you start to cry.
You sit wondering what the hell you're going to do.
So you start hitting on this empty tube.
Your family and friends will fade from view.
But you won't see this because you have a different crew.
A crew of lowlifes thieves crooks and cooks
 But you won't see this because you want the cooks recipe book.
With this one thing on your mind all your possessions you've collected over the years disappear in time.
one cook, two cook, three cook, four.
Now you have the recipe book you won't be poor no more.
But now it's the beginning of the end for you my friend.
Black red and ephedrine starting to blend.
The monkey is on your back, While your pockets fill with Jack.
Greed condemns your soul while the evidence seems to grow.
There are pigs in your backyard eagles in the sky the Heat is in your kitchen waiting for you to arrive.
The law finally gets you. They throw you to the floor.
so you want to break the law hey son. Well not any more.
Handcuffed locked up sitting in your cell
You're thinking how all of this started that led you straight to hell
So come into my parlor take a seat if you dare.
I showed you what I would do to you if you entered into my life.
So think twice my friend before you snort that first line. Because I am telling you your soul will become mine.
